Have you ever wondered what a church service looked like in Corinth during the time of the Apostles? What happened in a Roman or Ephesian House Church? Did they have a hip pastor who wore skinny jeans? (Hint: they did not!) We call this time period the Early Church, and we actually know quite a bit about what things looked like like back then.
I will be doing a 4 part Sunday School series on the worship of the Early Church, starting this Sunday, Aug 4:
Session 1 will cover the order of worship and the role that women played in those services.
Session 2 will look at the Holy Eucharist in the service of the Early Church.
Session 3 will cover their views of the charisms (gifts of the Spirit.)
Session 4 will discuss the mission work of the Early Church.
